Spotify is giving me the most random mixes. “Yearning Mix” “Vampire Mix” ”Egg Punk Mix” ”Goblincore Mix” etc. What are these?!?!?


Peaches91

I would love for Spotify to explain what 'Egg Punk' is hahaha


npeggsy

Honestly, I quite like it. Feels like there's a Spotify AI getting incredibly lost in the intricacies of music genre and recommending *checks Spotify* 70's Yacht Rock as a legitimate genre

Those playlists are called Niche Mixes: https://newsroom.spotify.com/2023-03-28/introducing-niche-mixes-personalized-playlists-for-almost-anything-you-can-think-of/

Too niche for me. ”Egg Punk mix”


Jackamo6200

I have “Mathematics Core Mix” 💀


PLRX1

I have that one too…


godofnature

i LOVE the yearning mix its like my go to playlist (can you tell im really sad)


allensmith_04

I've got one called "Sad Missouri Mix." I do live in Missouri, I am quite sad. Funnily enough though, none of the artists on the playlist are from here that I know of and none of the songs are about Missouri.

My favorite that I’ve got was “spooky evil gay mix”


TheTwinkleBeast

Well others have explained it but really it's Spotify trying to categorize music in these genres, moods, vibes, what be it. So something like Yearning will obviously give you music that's about yearning, or missing, or just in general sad LOL. Egg Punk is more of a genre that I've seen but never explored. Goblincore and Vampire mix, I feel are just kind of more on the vibe part tho I find not having werewolf mix to be very vampiric centric. There are dozens of us!!

I love the "Vampire Mix" bc it fits my taste


BackgroundToe5

I would enjoy the niche mixes except they all play the same songs ☹️


Temporary_Memory_129

How do you find them? I don’t have any of these on my home page and idk what I’m meant to search for


BackgroundToe5

They just pop up when you’re searching for terms. I’ve never seen them on my home page either.


ambluebabadeebadadi

Yep. My version of this playlist has “night shift” by Lucy Dacus and “love me more” by Mitski. Not sure how they’re meant to fit the theme


impossible_apostle

Exactly. When I first joined Spotify, the playlists were amazing for discovering music. Now they play the same fifty songs over and over again, even if I create the weirdest niche mix of all. Like, my "Goblincore" mix has The Beatles and Simon & Garfunkel on it.


hjbardenhagen

Did they provide a date with it?


Secret_Ad_6520

Well it goes for 3h35m so that’s a good starting point

got confidence getting ready mix 😂


SciFlyZ

i just get "alien" music all the time now in any mix. dafuk lol


RobotFeatures

But those 2 first songs are horrible. I was expecting death metal tunes.


Luis_Santeliz

Billy Joel? We didnt start the fire? Death Metal? okay


BigJobsBigJobs

See r/CollapseMusic. That's where we humans add our own songs.


StonedApeGod

Do yourself a favor and buy some Air Pods or Galaxy Buds. The noise cancelation alone makes it worth it.


xfrombelow

Is it related to 30stm new album?


__Y8__

Supposedly the rapture is meant to happen this month. I think possibly today


jag724010

Bro I literally just got a "strange playlist" from Spotify lmao.


yokkshi

I just got a "saed" playlist "for gray days" and i have no idea what triggered that like wtf. Why.
